Verse
If you see your brother standing by the road
With a heavy load from the seeds he sowed
And if you see your sister falling by the way
Just stop and say "you're going the wrong way"
Chorus
You've got to try a little kindness, yes, show a little kindness
Just shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness then you'll overlook the blindness
Of the narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
Verse
Don't walk around the down and out, lend a helping hand instead of doubt
And the kindness that you show everyday will help someone along their way
Chorus
x2):
You've got to try a little kindness, yes, show a little kindness
Just shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness then you'll overlook the blindness
Of the narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
